Miracles in Motion is a non-profit organization offering therapeutic horseback riding
lessons to children and adults in the Monadnock region. Many individuals in
the community have experienced transformative growth -- emotionally and physically
-- through their experiences at Miracles in Motion.
It is an exciting time at Miracles! A new leadership team is in place, representing
a strong and diverse background in equestrian, physical therapy, child development,
corporate and community leadership, and years in developing and sustaining non-profit
businesses. We have an exciting and progressive business plan, and are diversifying
our program offerings throughout 2010.
We are also further strengthening our excellent training capabilities. We are seeking
volunteers to work with the horses and riders. If you feel you can contribute
to this powerful community service, please contact Victoria McIlrath, Interim Executive
Director at executivedirector@mimnh.org.
